Does anyone have one for sale? or know where I can buy one?

I saw it in color magazine last fall. I think you're talking about the aluminum base. I don't have one, but would like one for my Makita.

I went back through the Scantlings and found an article for them in April 2008. They were avaialable through the guild store. I looked and didn't see them there so I emailed the guild store and here is the response:
"Morning Brad...they are not available at the moment. We are in the process of trying to get them again. Our supplier decided not to make them and we are trying to source them from a different vendor.

I would say to check the website in a month or so...we should have them back by then or at least know if we will be selling them again.

Thanks for the interest.

thanks for the info guys wink
The "hand me down" saw I got is in need of a base and I figured might as well go for the bigfoot.
